Ability to Sort Form Field Options on School Forms
Right now, when entering options for a school form form field drop down menu, the options saved together automatically sort in alphabetical order. There are some drop downs that we create for school forms that we want to appear in a particular order. We would like to be able to manually set the sort order if we don't want to use the alphabetical sorting.

Yes! A perfect example is the days of the week. I have found if I enter all the days, save it so it is alphabetized, then I can retype in the correct order...strange, but it works...just a waste of time when you can simply add in sort order
This should not have been merged with https://blackbaudk12.ideas.aha.io/ideas/K12CO-I-877, which requests the ability to edit the Sort Order in which School Forms appear to parents. This request is about the Sort Order of the 'Form Field' dropdown options, which is different.
This is becoming a problem now with the recommendation forms in enrollment management. Numbering doesn't make sense, but we need items in a particular order that is NOT alpha order.
I concur! I like my days of the week in order of occurrence rather than alphabetical order.
